A FEW STATISTICS AS TO OUR
FOREIGN POPULATION.

1t will be seen by the last census
report of the United States that there
were over 100000 of foreign birth in
this country, and over 100000 of
foreign parentage Here are about
100000 of people, un-American in
their ideas and feelings: here is over
one-quarter of the total population of
this country who themselves or their
parents were born in another country.
Now if these $4,000, 900 were honest
industrious and law-abiding people,
the country would be better off for
their coming: but no, instead of being
benefit, they are direct and actual
curse; instead of taking hold and as
sisting the other three-quarters, these
15,000,0 900 are almost all supported in
idleness-not Only supported in idle
ness, but they put the people to enor-
nous expease in other directions; and
this can be easily figured out, and can
De uOne IN tn1S way.
Take the State of Massachusetts,
and it will be found that more than
eighty per cent. of her criminals are
of foreign birth, yet less than five out
of every hundred of her inhabitants
are foreigners. Over ninety per cent.
of the inmates of our charity institu-
tions in Massachusetts are foreigners
Now, what can be said of the child.

not be tenfold worse and more danger

or to rumsellers, and politicians, and
city officials.

New York, more than 500 are OF for.

eight out of every ten of our CRIMINALS

that we establish courts to try, that we
support high salaried officers in these
courts, that we build prisons for. are
of foreign birth or parentage; so that
if it were not for them our taxes would
be one half less.
We have no one to blame for all
this but ourselves; we invited this
class of people to come to us, and they
came. We cannot return them,
although we might be justified in
doing so; but we car stop it from
growing any worse, than it is; and
this must be done Tor the country is

Senator Stanford is heartily in favor
of tariff for the protection of Ameri.
can labor, He gives millions for the
education of American youth, and
wants to protect American workmen
from competition with men in other
lands whose compensation hardly al
lows them the bare necessarics of life.
Evidently Mr.. Stamford wants to have
all his fellow countrymen well educa.

PROTECTION.

President Cleveland is right in the
assertion that there is danger to be
anticipated from the accumulation of
money in tho Treasury, but his pro-
posal for relief is that duties should
be removed from foreign manufactu-
ries, leaving the income of the Gov
eminent to depend on internal tax
alton. He has struck the key note
of free trade and many Republicans
will agree with him, many Democrats
will oppoae him. The issue is not
national 1t is only local and personal.
1t is an issue between manufacturing
and agricultural localities; between
manufacturers and consumers.
Having sounded his war cry for the
next campaign Mr.. Cleveland while
undoubtedly sincere In his efforts for
the welfare of the Nation must abide
by the consequence Of The natural con-
clusion of the people that be does not
clearly see the way to national and
individual prosperity. Mr.. Blaine
steps in to take advantage of Mr.. Cleve
lands free trade mistake and after
having gathered up some European
votes by taking deep interest in
affairs In which America has no con.
Germ undertakes to capture the Ameri-
can vote by an empty talk for protect.
ion which would protect nobody but
the manufacturers who have manu-
featured goods to sell in competition
with European goods of the same
character. He says we must protect
by tariff, which is well enough, but
fearing to lose some foreign votes he
dare not say that while protecting the
capital engaged in manufacture against
European capital engaged in the same
line, by taxing the entry of the foreign
wares, we should also protect the
laboIer and mechanic by taxing the
entry Of foreign workman. Protect.
ion j. not protection unless all inter-
ests receive its benefits, and now is an
excellent time for some statesman who
has love Of oountryas well as ambition
to annouce the true doctrine, namely,
protection of the workman. Ii he IS
not obliged to compete with too many
Others at the same work he is prosper
GUS. If the product of his work is
protected Tor bis employer while he is
left exposed to competition, the effect
will be that Europe will send her
labor here TO work at rates induced
by competition while she buys our
raw.material at the reduced rates con,
sequent on such cheap work. Mr..
Blaine has certainly made as great a
mistake rs did Mr.. Cleveland If he
believes he has announced the true
doctrine of protection or has struck a
popular chord in National politics.

The Half Price Boy.

That fall Mr.. wilkins sold his hcuse and
tried boarding for the winter, And it would
have been very funny, il it hadnot been very
sad, TO hear Mrs. Wilkins bargaining for
room and board for two, with little child
thrown in.
He was very small eater, she said, and
could easily be fed from her plate, and he
would wait and not require an extra seat at
table, and sleep on a sofa in her room, SO be
would be no trouble to any one
So he was included, like a cat or parrot,
with their belongings, and he said not word,
though he held his mothers hand, and read
her face with his great blue eyes while she
haggled about him. And she told his father
that Harley had outgrown his foolish baby
fashion Of asking questions.
But he thought Oh, deep In his little
heart he thought and thought over the com
| plex mysteries Of life.
One night he lay awake on the sofa bed
and could not sleep. His head was hot and
felt twice its natural size. Pretty soon he
began to talk. His mother and father heard
him and said:
"He is dreaming"
But 1t was they who were dreaming. The
child was waking In the morning
that has never a noon or night
His mother heard his last few words with
an agony OF remorse that came too late
"Please, dear God, let me in. haven'i
